Brenner’s is excellent- all the food is delicious, and the service is top-notch. Try to get a table by the window in the main dining room. The view of the waterfall and garden is so peaceful.

Eddie Vs city center did a fantastic job for a friends bday celebration. It seemed as everyone (hostess, bartender, waitress, even the manager) knew it was a joint bday celebration and said happy bday to all of us. Our waitress, Carly, was awesome. She was prompt and had such a lovely disposition. She chatted and joked with us and helped make our evening that much more enjoyable. Thank you Eddie Vs. We will be back next year again to celebrate.
